The hospital, which was designed for low energy consumption,[1][2] was designed by Ahrends, Burton and Koralek and opened in 1990.[3] An archaeological investigation was carried out on the site in 2009 but found no features or artifacts of archaeological interest.[4]
A new Medical Assessment Unit with 24 beds and space for 6 ambulant patients opened in August 2015.[5]

Services provided at the hospital include urology, orthopaedics, ophthalmology, ear nose and throat (ENT), cardiology, gastroenterology, rehabilitation, respiratory, dermatology, care of the elderly, rheumatology, gynaecology, maternity and paediatrics.[6] The hospital also contains a private wing, which holds 11 beds.[7]
